A Wander With The Compatto

[Gamegetter 128]

 

Was out for a wander with the compatto yesterday on one of my shoots

Managed to put a bunny and a pigeon in the bag

I've gone full circle with the compatto, didn't like them at first but now i think they look better than wildcats!

might have to test-drive one!!

Good shooting there Mike.

I have a compatto ordered & cant wait to receive it , I am new to air rifle shooting , what is the scope you have on yours or could you recommend me one that would suit the compatto , Also how is the bipod attached to the rail , I have a bipod that attaches to the sling swivel do I need an adaptor for the rail to attach this ?

Ok Alan , you won't be dissapointed with the compatto lovely rifles light weight , short , mine prints silly small groups with 10.6 grain Bodley magnums .177

The quality of the rifle far out ways it's price tag

The scope I have on it is a Mtc viper 4-16x50 it with the scb reticule .

I always use Mtc scopes I find the scb ret ideal for airguns

Thanks all for the replys

Ok Alan , here's a better photo of the compatto with Mtc scope on

By the way at the front of the rifle there's a picatinny rail which you can purchase an adapter with a sling stud in then you can fit a sling or bipod

Optics look like a viper or EVX mate. Get one of those Or any of the hawke range.

 

You've ordered one to your door? I know thats sounds a gumbo question, but you might still do mail order in Eyeland

 

Calibre you go for?

[sledge 1]

Got it in .22 , have it ordered through RFD , licence just came today so I can collect it tomorrow

Ok Alan , the scope is a MTC viper 4-16x50ir with the scb reticule

I always use the Mtc scopes I find the reticule best suited to my needs

The bipod is attached via a picatinny mount with sling stud fitted

Here's a better pick of the scope

I like those older Vipers and Mambas

 

Those new Optisan EVX things are feckin' awful.

[Gamegetter 128]

Yeah won't touch the new ones , like the older ones .

My mate owns optics warehouse down here and he has a few of the older vipers and Mambas in stock , these are re-conditioned but still have a 1 year warranty . He had a few in stock when I seen him last week
